Isaiah 38:16 in Context — Isaiah 38

14 Como la grulla y como la golondrina me quejaba; gemía como la paloma: alzaba en alto mis ojos: Jehová, violencia padezco; confórtame.

15 ¿Qué diré? El que me lo dijo, él mismo lo ha hecho. Andaré recapacitando en la amargura de mi alma todos los años de mi vida.

16 Oh Señor, sobre ellos vivirán [tus piedades], y á todos [diré consistir] en ellas la vida de mi espíritu; pues tú me restablecerás, y me harás que viva.

17 He aquí amargura grande me [sobrevino] en la paz: mas á ti plugo librar mi vida del hoyo de corrupción: porque echaste tras tus espaldas todos mis pecados.

18 Porque el sepulcro no te celebrará, ni te alabará la muerte; ni los que descienden al hoyo esperarán tu verdad.
